This elapsed time game printable worksheet is an engaging tool designed to help students master the skill of calculating elapsed time through interactive practice. By working through real-life scenarios, such as determining the length of a movie, students can develop their understanding of time passage in a fun and educational way.
Read the problem. Start by having the student read the problem, which involves calculating how long a movie was if it started at 7:00 P.M. and ended at 9:15 P.M.
Draw the start and end times. The student should use the clocks on the worksheet to draw the start time of 7:00 P.M. on the left clock and the end time of 9:15 P.M. on the right clock.
Fill in the timeline. Guide the student to use the timeline to map out the time difference between the start and end points. This visual representation helps reinforce their understanding of elapsed time.
Complete the T-Chart. In the T-Chart, students should record the start time on the left side, calculate and note the elapsed time in the middle, and then record the end time on the right side. This step solidifies the calculation process.
The worksheet includes explicit instructions for solving math problems step-by-step, ensuring students grasp each concept clearly and build confidence.
